Document Summary
Basically, bio- is the prefix of life or living organism. Mechanics is use for the study of effect of forces on energy with particles and mechanical systems. Altogether, biomechanic is the physics (mechanics) on motion of human bodies. Biomechanic involves the concept principles of anatomy and physics in the descriptions and analysis of the bodily movement. Applies the principle of mechanics to show the human movements on muscle, tendon, and bones. To examines forces within biological structures and the interrelationship among the forces. Ex. evaluating motion of rising from a chair, one attempts to measure and identify joint forces acting at the hip, knee, and ankle along with the force between the foot and the floor. Biomechanics studies the subject of majoring on exercise science, coaching, ergonomics, equipment designs, and motor control. Kinesiology is the method of scientific study from the human movement. Biomechanics are the study of the structure and function within biologic system on methods of mechanics.
